Design and development of the PRIMAger instrument for PRIMA
Anne Costille, Fabrice Madec, Johan Floriot +11
PRIMA (PRobe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics) is an infrared space observatory designed to operate over the next decade. Equipped with a 1.8 m telescope actively cooled to 4.…
PRIMA: PRIMAger, a far-infrared hyperspectral and polarimetric instrument
Laure Ciesla, Charles Darren Dowell, Marc Sauvage +27
The PRobe far-Infrared Mission for Astrophysics (PRIMA) is an infrared observatory for the next decade, currently in Phase A, with a 1.8m telescope actively cooled to 4.5K. On boar…
Challenges in focal plane and telescope calibration for High-Precision Space Astrometry
F. Malbet, M. Lizzana, F. Pancher +10
With sub-microarcsecond angular accuracy, the \theia telescope will be capable of revealing the architectures of nearby exoplanetary systems down to the mass of Earth. This researc…
Theia : science cases and mission profiles for high precision astrometry in the future
Fabien Malbet, Lucas Labadie, Alessandro Sozzetti +11
High-precision astrometry well beyond the capacities of Gaia will provide a unique way to achieve astrophysical breakthroughs, in particular on the nature of dark matter, and a com…
Faint objects in motion: the new frontier of high precision astrometry
Fabien Malbet, Céline Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +83
Sky survey telescopes and powerful targeted telescopes play complementary roles in astronomy. In order to investigate the nature and characteristics of the motions of very faint ob…
Theia: Faint objects in motion or the new astrometry frontier
The Theia Collaboration, Celine Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +96
In the context of the ESA M5 (medium mission) call we proposed a new satellite mission, Theia, based on relative astrometry and extreme precision to study the motion of very faint…
A detector interferometric calibration experiment for high precision astrometry
A. Crouzier, F. Malbet, F. Henault +23
Context: Exoplanet science has made staggering progress in the last two decades, due to the relentless exploration of new detection methods and refinement of existing ones. Yet ast…
WFIRST-2.4: What Every Astronomer Should Know
D. Spergel, N. Gehrels, J. Breckinridge +43
The Astro2010 Decadal Survey recommended a Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) as its top priority for a new large space mission. The report of the WFIRST-AFTA Science De…
Wide-Field InfraRed Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Final Report
J. Green, P. Schechter, C. Baltay +51
In December 2010, NASA created a Science Definition Team (SDT) for WFIRST, the Wide Field Infra-Red Survey Telescope, recommended by the Astro 2010 Decadal Survey as the highest pr…
NEAT: a space born astrometric mission for the detection and characterization of nearby habitable planetary systems
Fabien Malbet, Renaud Goullioud, Pierre-Olivier Lagage +4
The NEAT (Nearby Earth Astrometric Telescope) mission is a proposal submitted to ESA for its 2010 call for M-size mission within the Cosmic Vision 2015-2025 plan. The main scientif…
High precision astrometry mission for the detection and characterization of nearby habitable planetary systems with the Nearby Earth Astrometric Telescope (NEAT)
Fabien Malbet, Alain Léger, Michael Shao +49
(abridged) A complete census of planetary systems around a volume-limited sample of solar-type stars (FGK dwarfs) in the Solar neighborhood with uniform sensitivity down to Earth-m…
Micro-pixel accuracy centroid displacement estimation and detector calibration
Chengxing Zhai, Mike Shao, Renaud Goullioud +1
Precise centroid estimation plays a critical role in accurate astrometry using telescope images. Conventional centroid estimation fits a template point spread function (PSF) to the…
Overview of the SIM PlanetQuest Light (SIM-Lite) mission concept
R. Goullioud, J. H. Catanzarite, F. G. Dekens +2
